Passalaqua v. Passalaqua

[¶ 1] Kelly Passalaqua appeals from an order entered in the District Court (Lewi-ston, Beliveau, J.), denying her motion to dismiss, for lack of standing, the petition for grandparent visitation rights brought by her former mother-in-law, Shirley A.

We vacate the interim order and dismiss the appeal as interlocutory.
